2018 Jeep Wrangler JL Length, Wheelbase, Water Fording Depth

The 2018 Jeep Wrangler has a cool badge on the inner tailgate that tells you some of the more important specifications you want to know including length, width, wheelbase, track, and water fording depth. (Let’s all take a moment and agree how cool it is that our vehicle is actually designed to cross streams, rivers and deep ponds in mall parking lots.)

We thought it would be helpful to put together a table and compare the 2018 Wrangler JL to the outgoing 2007-2017 Jeep Wrangler JK.

As you can see the new 2018 Jeep Wrangler JL is a few inches longer than the JK Wrangler which will give you better on-road driving capabilities without compromising offroad angles. The wheelbase is stretched as well, which will slightly minimize and absorb bumps on and off-road. The track is a few inches wider as well, which should give all of us an even more stable platform in cornering and covering obstacles. And finally, the water fording depth. It will remain the same at 30 inches at 5mph. Nothing to shake a finger at.
